All the People We Want to Be in 2016

It’s 2016: “New year, new me.” Regardless of what “resolution” means to you, who do you want to be?

What about Iris Apfel for her accessory-centered weight training program. Batman for his built-in sunscreen. Picasso for his sword (just as much as his shorts) and anyone who wears sequins for the hollering hoot of it. What about women who wear color like it’s the last thing they’ll ever do? What about she who stands without a slouch, gets tan lines without the ouch and dares the city to come at her winter whites with any crap?

Of course, pictures of all these human honey bees would make a lot more sense, so scroll like a jewel-bellied troll and then way down in the comments, add your colorful epitome of #goals. Typing them out loud is half the battle.

Note to self: incorporate more sequins into daily life even though December parties are over. Note to mom: don't worry, I'm not gonna start smoking just because I want her outfit in the previous picture. (Photograph via @harinef)

Amanda Brooks for the outfits and her Instagram for the endless amount of countryside inspiration -- aka, reasons to disconnect. (Photograph via @amandacbrooks)

I am getting a salary of more than 4500 dollars each week , that is awesome. Over a year ago I was in a horrible condition , jobless and Bank account with only few bucks . Thanks to one of my friends who showed me a way where I was able to gather myself and making average of 68 d/h. So it can change your life as it has changed mine.

Mary Hunter Austin because her descriptions of the High Sierras + the desert are some of the most beautiful I have ever read. Her preciseness is astonishing (you don’t need to be an “outdoorsy person” to appreciate it!) and she used her craft to shed light on Native American rights and land preservation in the age of rapid, greedy, relentless expansion west.

(and I suppose for what it’s worth, she looked like a badass with her long, flowing hair and felt hat, too).

solange is my heart and soul and i’m genuinely sad every day that i’m not her

I wish I could be (14) the girl who looks so put together in the super market, when I often look like (6) aka. Steve Jobs with a sort of a twist… http://www.kaftanmag.com/

I’m jealous of Solange wearing so much colour but too afraid as I’d look like a girl in a banana suit flogging a smoothie stand instead of a pop star.

Firstly, that green Rosie Assoulin outfit MADE for Solange, yes? I would like to be as wealthy in cash and gentleman lovers as that outfit is in crisp buttons.

Secondly, I’m aiming to be Obama this year, because he has zero fucks to give about people’s opinions in his final year of presidency and will use executive power to introduce some sort of gun control legislation whether the NRA/Congress likes it or not before dropping the mic for a final time and the attitude behind such a mentality, my friends, is something to commend, regardless of his success or failure.
